APPLICATION DETAILS

Application conditions

The surface to be treated must be dry, i.e. the moisture content of the wood should be below 20 %. During painting and drying, the temperature of the air, surface and wood finish has to be at least +5 °C, and the relative humidity of the air below 80 %.

Surfaces treated previously with wood preservative or wood finish:
Remove loose material from previously treated surfaces with scraper or steel brush. Clean the surface and wash down with Tikkurila Mould Removal (Homeenpoisto) solution, if necessary. Glossy film remaining on the surface of the wood should be removed or at least sanded down. Protect plants from splashes of Valtti Color.

Surface treatment

Make sure you have enough tinted Valtti Color for one uniform surface, mixed into one canister to avoid possible colour differences. Stir Valtti Color thoroughly before use and during painting.

Apply Valtti Color evenly by brush along the whole length of a log or couple of boards to avoid overlapping. Treat end-grain carefully. Apply 2 coats, thin coats on planed and log surfaces. Always use tinted product to protect new surfaces.

Handle the surface with care, ultimate durability and hardness is reached in approx. 4 weeks under normal circumstances. If cleansing is needed soon after finishing, use a soft brush, damp cleaning cloth or a mop.
After 1 month from painting a soiled surface can be cleansed with Talon Huoltopesu (1 part of Talon Huoltopesu to 10 parts of water). Clean stains and dirty surfaces with a stronger mix of Talon Huoltopesu and water (1:1). Rinse well and allow to dry.

Maintenance treatment

Observe the condition of the finished surface and perform maintenance painting, if necessary. Factors affecting maintenance intervals include the location, compass orientation and weather conditions.

Check the condition of the timber and the functionality of the log structure before applying the finishing coat. See more information at:
